The Deputy DIrector is responsible for energy conservatIon and efficiency Improvements at the

to pay for imported fuel all of the management is highly motIvated to find ways to improve
operating effiCIencIes In order to achIeve effective fuel utilization, and all employees are aware
of the need for conservation. However, the eXIstIng program must be expanded and enhanced
with management restructunng and new procedures to prepare for the comIng pnvatIzatIon
reforms. These changes will help to prepare the plant to be commercIally onented by
incorporatIng western management methods and procedures.
The stated goals for thIS program, as a mimmum, should be emphasIzed as follows:
• Conserve energy
• Reduce environmental pollutIon
• Improve operatIOnal efficiency
• Improve equipment reliabIlIty
• Introduce new technologIes
The stated purpose for an expanded energy management program should be to provide a basis
for attracting private financing and future Investments for a viable enterpnse haVIng the potentIal
for success.
As a first step, a hIghly VISIble management staff pOSItIon and/or department should be
establIshed reporting to the dIrector and haVIng the responsibilIty and authonty to develop,
